Together with Lindai Boogerman (of Sesamestreet fame), I’ve created a new puppet/object theatre piece after the book “Ijsbeer in de Tropen” (Ice bear in the jungle)” of Hans de Beer.

With only everyday objects and a few stuffed animals, and with barely any language, the accidental travel of the young ice-bear from the north-pole to the tropics and back is being told. The piece is about both the feeling of going on adventure and the longing for home.

The show features the Genetic Choir singing all natural soundtracks (pole winds, storms, waves/beach, jungle+apes) and a Whale Song composed and sung by me. 🙂

The piece is intended for children from 3 years upward. Dutch language skills not required. Reserve tickets here.

The show will tour the Netherlands in the next few months and visit a.o. Nijmegen, Almere, Schaijk, Rotterdam, Hoogeveen, Leeuwaarden, Ijmuiden, Almelo, Dordrecht, Hoofddorp, Hoorn, and Amsterdam again end of January as part of the Prentenboekfestival.

In the wake of “(Dis)connecting the dots”, a research project carried out in the frame of the Carpet Sessions in Amsterdam, I just wrote an article which hopefully sheds a bit of light on the general issues that appear when bringing musicians, dancers and actors together on stage, in an improvisation context. 🙂
